Chapter 532: Chapter 534 Chasing After Your Footsteps (Part Three)
Night fell, deep and profound.
The man stood beside the bed, his slender fingers gently landing between Mu Ruyue’s brows, then tracing down in a straight line to rest upon her lips…
Her lips were soft and cold, irresistibly tempting one to savor their fragrance.
Of course, he thought as much, and indeed he did just that.
The man leaned down to kiss Mu Ruyue’s delicate lips, lightly tasting their scent, but his actions were very gentle, as if afraid of waking her…
The woman on the bed seed restless, her brows deeply furrowed. She turned over, facing the man, and her knit brows slowly relaxed.
“Muer, I’m sorry, but I must leave.”
Since the dical Immortal Sect was after him, only by his departure could she be safe. Yet, he was filled with reluctance, with not wanting to leave this woman…
Moonlight spilled into the room, casting upon the man’s tall figure.
His gaze was so focused, as if trying to deeply engrave the woman’s entire being into his mory…
Perhaps after this parting, it is uncertain when they would et again.
“Muer, I will wait, wait for the day you grow stronger. When we et again, maybe you will have reached great heights, and then we need not part anymore.”
Only with great strength could they be together forever.
After one final glance at the woman lying in the bed, Ye Wuchen left without any hesitation, disappearing into the boundless night…
He left without telling her.
Because Ye Wuchen knew very well Mu Ruyue’s personality; if she understood the reason for his departure, she would never let him go.
…
“Big brother, big brother!!!”
Within the Alchemy Tower, an anxious voice echoed throughout.
Xiao Feng was giving orders when he suddenly heard Mu Ruyue’s voice. Turning to look at the woman approaching quickly, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, “Sister, what’s happened?”
At that mont, Mu Ruyue held a letter in her hands, her eyes filled with urgency, “Big brother, have you seen Wuchen?”
“Wuchen?” Xiao Feng raised his eyebrows and shook his head, “What happened to Ye Wuchen?”
Mu Ruyue’s fingers trembled, and her downcast eyes hid a bitter smile: “Wuchen has left…”
“Left?”
“Yes,” Mu Ruyue nodded, “He left to avoid implicating and the Xiao Family…”
Xiao Feng was taken aback. Yesterday, he and Yao Yunqing were not here, so it was only upon returning that they learned about the incident at the Xiao Family.
But he hadn’t expected Ye Wuchen to leave because of it…
“Yue’er.” Xiao Feng’s voice choked, montarily at a loss for words to console her.
“Big brother, I’m alright,” Mu Ruyue slowly lifted her eyes, a firm look in her gaze, “I believe that one day I will et him again…”
Xiao Feng raised his hand to pat Mu Ruyue’s shoulder. He truly felt for his little sister; she had only just been united with the man she loved, but such turbulence had ensued…
“Big brother, I need to start preparing for the dical Immortal eting.”
Mu Ruyue smiled, said no more, and turned to walk towards the door, gradually disappearing from his sight…
Xiao Feng felt as if sothing were lodged in his throat, leaving him unable to speak. This woman was always so strong; how he wished she would just cry in his arms.
But she didn’t…
Ye Wuchen’s departure seed to have little impact on Mu Ruyue; she was still busy with her cultivation every day. But only she knew that the desperate cultivation was just to follow in his footsteps.
